Sunday Kitchen

Sunday Kitchen is the mother–daughter duo of Sivine and Karima, who honour Lebanese food traditions through storytelling, teaching and shared meals. For them, Sundays were sacred—a time to cook side by side, welcome guests, and show love through food. What began as a personal ritual has grown into a thriving cooking school and community, where they pass down recipes, techniques and cultural knowledge to the next generation.

This philosophy is also at the heart of their cookbook Sofra—a love letter to their family, their culture and the women who came before them. Through recipes, stories and family anecdotes, Sofra preserves and shares Lebanese food heritage with the diaspora and beyond.

This is Sunday Kitchen’s fattoush salad, reimagined through the eyes of artist Nourie Flayhan. A mother–daughter recipe rooted in memory and tradition, it’s shown here mid-preparation, ingredients scattered across a kitchen table, hands at work.
